Yes, it's that time of year when everyone is talking about goals...blah, blah, blah. I am so over the traditional way to setting goals because they just leave me feeling like a failure. Until I found the 10X method of setting goals! In today's episode I share with you why a 10X goal (making the goal HUGE and nearly impossible) is scientifically backed the best way to get so much closer to creating the business you actually want.

Be sure to get registered for the free 10X Goal Workshop on December 13th here.

There are so many strategies to get more people to try your product and become raving fans from ads to events. One of my favorites is influencer marketing because it's pretty easy to get started even on a low budget and there are some great fringe benefits that come with collaborating with others. On today's podcast I interview Yash Chavan, creator of Saral, who is my go-to expert on all things influencer marketing. He explains what influencer marketing is and why it works so well, gives you a six step process to get started and shares the three biggest mistakes to avoid.

Gratitude is generally a positive emotion, but sometimes I see how people use gratitude to try to tamper down their desires and not go after their dream. On today's podcast, I share with you what this looks like and then give you three very useful ways to use gratitude to fuel you into action even when you feel fear.

Don't skip over this one! I know you may not love to do this planning CEO-type work, but at this time of year it is the difference between celebrating huge wins or possibly giving up next year.  I share with you the basics of creating a strategic plan and what it means to do scenario planning. At the end of this type of planning you will know exactly what you need to do, what it will cost in time and money and whether you are all in to take action in January.

I have put together a great offer to help you this year - 90 minute work sessions to get this done together and ask me questions and get coaching. Learn more at https://www.foodbizsuccess.com/2024plan. Fuel members save 40% on work sessions - you can still join at just $57 a month here.

Do you shy away from asking for feedback about your business or even yourself as a founder and entrepreneur? It makes sense that we would be afraid of the answers, because then we might have to change something or we might take things personally.  I share with you a new way to ask for feedback based on Adam Grant's latest book Hidden Potential.

In the spirit of asking for feedback, I would love yours about the podcast, workshops and me as an entrepreneur. Please take 5 minutes to fill out the anonymous survey at
https://www.foodbizsuccess.com/survey. I will be giving away a Fuel gift box and a $100 Visa gift card to a lucky winner!

Do you ever feel like your body and mind are working against what you say you really want: a successful business?  On today's podcast I talk with Kendra Seone, a somatic weight loss coach who helps entrepreneurs end emotional eating struggles.  You don't have to struggle with your weight to fall prey to emotional eating, drinking or any other habits that help you escape the hardships of life. I have struggled with both for most of my life and when I overate and over drank, my business became so much HARDER.

Be sure to listen to the end when Kendra gives us a gift of a self compassion break. Just see how much better you feel after this short exercise and how much more capable you feel to tackle something challenging.

You can find Kendra on Instragram and TikTok at @KendraSeoane and learn more about her new group program and her Masterclass at http://www.kendraseoane.com.

Hope is not a strategy, but it is a crucial foundation of your business. High hope people go after bigger goals and take bigger risks.

We are having the most amazing conversations inside Fuel especially on the bonus mindset calls. Everyone thinks its about strategy and getting the "how" of creating a successful business, but it's never that. It's always the head trash that gets in the way of taking action. 

On today's podcast I share with you two of the questions from members Amber and Debi who are both in the early stages of getting their products into stores. Listen in as I help them solve problems, get into a better space to contact the buyers and leave feeling more inspired to take the next steps.
